CT Scanning of the Head

Services Computed Tomography (CT) CT Scanning of the Head

CT scanning—sometimes called Computed Tomography or CAT scanning—is a noninvasive medical test that helps physicians diagnose and treat medical conditions.

CT scanning combines special x-ray equipment with sophisticated computers to produce multiple images or pictures of the inside of the body. These cross-sectional images of the area being studied can then be examined on a computer monitor, printed or transferred to a CD.

CT scans of internal organs, bones, soft tissue and blood vessels provide greater clarity and reveal more details than regular x-ray exams

CT scanning of head is typically used to detect:
- Bleeding, brain injury and skull fractures in patients with head injuries.
- Bleeding caused by a ruptured or leaking aneurysm in a patient with a sudden severe headache.
- A blood clot or bleeding within the brain shortly after a patient exhibits symptoms of a stroke.
- A stroke, especially with a new technique called Perfusion CT.
- Brain tumors.
- Enlarged brain cavities (ventricles) in patients with hydrocephalus.
- Diseases or malformations of the skull.
